a = 5m

b = 4 m

Area, there is a triangle and a semicircle

1.- Area of the triangle

Area = base x heigth / 2

Area = 4 x 5/ 2

Area = 20/2

Area = 10 m^2

2.- Area of the semicircle

Area = pi *r^2

Area = 3.14 * (2)^2

Area = 12.56

Area of the semicircle = 6.28 m^2

3.- Total area

Total area = area of the triangle + area of the semicircle

Total area = 10 + 6.28

Total area = 16.28 m^2
